French Guiana is an overseas French department in South America at the margin of the Amazon basin. Its population is characterized by an important number of cultural groups. Many inhabitants originate from the Caribbean (mostly Saint Lucia, Martinique, Guadeloupe, Haiti, and the Dominican Republic). The objectives of this study were to present an overview of the main uses of plants among the Caribbean populations in French Guiana, and how they contribute to the dynamics of plant–based practices, in order to provide insights into ethnobotanical convergences, divergences, and hybridizations (such as the importation of new species and associated practices, and the adoption of Amazonian species by Caribbean people). Interviews and botanical voucher collections were conducted throughout the coastal area of French Guiana. Sixteen Saint Lucian, nineteen Haitian, eighteen French Caribbean, and twelve Dominican informants were interviewed during the fieldwork. Altogether they use 212 botanical species. Some plants have recently been imported directly from the Caribbean, while adaptations have also taken place: some species that do not exist locally are abandoned while Amazonian species are integrated to form hybrid pharmacopoeias. The phytotherapies of these communities in French Guiana are still conserved as consistent sets of knowledge, although they tend to blend through an ongoing process of hybridization.

移民药典:亚马逊流域(法属圭亚那)四个加勒比社区的民族植物学调查

法属圭亚那是南美洲亚马逊盆地边缘的法国海外省。它的人口以大量的文化群体为特征。许多居民来自加勒比地区(主要是圣卢西亚、马提尼克岛、瓜德罗普岛、海地和多米尼加共和国)。本研究的目的是概述植物在法属圭亚那的加勒比人口中的主要用途,以及它们如何促进以植物为基础的实践的动态,以提供对民族植物学趋同、分歧和杂交的见解(例如新物种的进口和相关做法,以及加勒比人对亚马逊物种的采用)。在整个法属圭亚那沿海地区进行了访谈和植物凭证收集。十六圣卢锡安,在实地调查期间采访了 19 名海地人、18 名法属加勒比海地区和 12 名多米尼加的线人。他们总共使用了 212 种植物。一些植物最近直接从加勒比地区进口,同时也发生了适应性变化:一些当地不存在的物种被遗弃,而亚马逊物种被整合以形成混合药典。法属圭亚那这些社区的植物疗法仍然保存为一致的知识集,尽管它们倾向于通过持续的杂交过程融合。一些当地不存在的物种被遗弃,而亚马逊物种被整合以形成混合药典。法属圭亚那这些社区的植物疗法仍然保存为一致的知识集,尽管它们倾向于通过持续的杂交过程融合。一些当地不存在的物种被遗弃,而亚马逊物种被整合以形成混合药典。法属圭亚那这些社区的植物疗法仍然保存为一致的知识集,尽管它们倾向于通过持续的杂交过程融合。
